The Limits Of Native Title
Common law native title is recognised by, but is not created by, the common law. That's because it comes from the laws and customs of native title holders. However, the High Court imposed some limits on the recognition of Aboriginal law in common law native title.
It placed restrictions on the way native title land may be dealt with.
It also recognised ways in which native title may lose common law recognition through surrender, abandonment, or extinction, and because the Court found that native title can also be extinguished by the Crown, it is very vulnerable to other rights and interests.
